In 2025, the company continued to reinforce its US operations by having Stanley Martin Homes, a Daiwa House group company, acquire the homebuilding business of Windsor Homes in North Carolina. Daiwa House also formed a consortium with Ricoh and NTT Anode Energy selected for a green innovation fund project to develop next-generation perovskite solar cell technology, emphasizing its commitment to sustainable and energy-efficient technologies.
